Heaven & Earth
Heaven & Earth

Produced by Robert Nasir, Jeffrey Crecelius, Wayne Hall, Preston Frazier and Bill Govier

We’ve (finally) reached the end of the Yes singles series with Heaven and Earth which didn’t really have any proper singles at all. However, it does give us a chance to think about Yes’ latest studio album again and we also have a bass focus in our 2 pence segment.

  • What’s is it with Heaven and Earth?
  • Were there any singles?
  • Why was RTB used again?

Listen to the episode then let us know what you think!
